tldr: new TF2 mod (Called Free2BeKicked) auto-kicks free to play players
many complain of unfairness and discrimination
but others say its the right of server admins to kick who they want
this has really polarized the two groups

    I don't see the problem. There are tons of servers, its not much different than putting on a password.

    Good thing I bought my copy of TF2 before not paying for one was a thing. :P

    Seriously though, I don't see what the big deal is. It's their server; they can do whatever the fuck they want with it, including blocking F2Pers. If you don't like it, don't play there. Find a better server run by an admin who isn't a total goose.

    So f2pers are the new halo/earbuds? Is anyone surprised by this?

    It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... And take away its pain.
